Atate Aitana Mwana Wake Kuti Abwere Kwawo
Mawu apa ndi a Atate wathu. Iye anaphunzitsa Efraimu kuyenda, anamunyamula ndi kuwerama kuti amudyetse, ndipo anasiyidwa. Kenako kutembenuka, ndingakupereke bwanji, ndipo akuti sadzachita monga mwa mkwiyo wake, chifukwa iye si munthu.
11 1Pamene Isiraeli anali mwana, ndinamkonda iye, ndipo kuchokera ku Igupto ndinaitana mwana wanga.
2Koma pamene ankawaitana, iwo ankawonjezera kupatuka; ankapitiriza kupereka nsembe kwa Abaala ndi kufukiza lubani kwa mafano osema. 3Komatu ndinali Ine amene ndinaphunzitsa Efraimu kuyenda, ndinkawanyamula m'manja mwawo; koma iwo sanadziwe kuti ndinawachiritsa. 4Ndinawatsogolera ndi zingwe za chifundo, ndi maunyolo a chikondi; ndinali ngati munthu wochotsa goli pa nsagwada zawo, ndipo ndinawerama kuti ndiwadyetse.
5Iwo sadzabwerera ku dziko la Igupto, koma Asiriya adzakhala mfumu yawo, chifukwa iwo anakana kubwerera. 6Lupanga lidzazungulira m'mizinda yawo, lidzawononga mipiringidzo ya zipata zawo, ndi kuwadya iwo chifukwa cha machenjerero awo. 7Anthu anga atsimikiza mtima kupatuka kwa Ine; ngakhale aitana Wammwambamwamba, Iye sadzawakweza n'komwe.
8Kodi ndingakusiye bwanji, iwe Efraimu? Kodi ndingakupereke bwanji, iwe Isiraeli? Kodi ndingakusandutse bwanji ngati Adima? Kodi ndingakuchite bwanji ngati Zeboimu? Mtima wanga ukutembenuka mkati mwanga; chifundo changa chonse chasonkhezeka. a a v8 Apa mtima weniweni wa Atate ukutembenukira kutsutsa chiweruzo chimene anthu awo ayenera kulandira — Iwo sangathe kudzilola kutaya ana awo. Ichi ndi chikondi chomvera chisoni ndi chofunafuna, chimene chili pakati penipeni pa chikhalidwe chawo. 9Sindidzachita molingana ndi mkwiyo wanga woopsa; sindidzawononganso Efraimu. Pakuti Ine ndine Atate wanu, osati munthu, Woyera amene ali pakati panu, ndipo sindidzabwera ndi mkwiyo. 10Iwo adzatsatira Atate wathu; adzabangula ngati mkango. Pamene adzabangula, ana awo adzabwera akunjenjemera kuchokera kumadzulo. 11Iwo adzabwera akunjenjemera ngati mbalame kuchokera ku Igupto, ngati nkhunda kuchokera ku dziko la Asiriya, ndipo ndidzawakhazika m'nyumba zawo, ati Atate wathu.
12Efraimu wandizinga ndi mabodza, ndipo nyumba ya Isiraeli yandizinga ndi chinyengo; koma Yuda akuyendabe ndi Atate wathu, ndipo ngokhulupirika kwa Woyera.
